    Off Topic: Redshoe is that a halibut I see in your profile?

    Maybe so, but had more get-up-and-go than the old lady, that's for sure!

    Paint Color ?

    Hey there benelli, Yep, that looks like the right part number, 70000-73712 for a quart of Bright Orange II. This orange shade is the newer of the two oranges that Kubota's come out with and I think it looks a little "redder" than the previous orange, Orange Enamel. We have listed on our...

    Off Topic: Redshoe is that a halibut I see in your profile?

    Managed to scratch up some pictures. This isn't me in the photo (a fishing buddy instead) because I do not have any of me on this computer, but it shows the size of that fish. Not huge as far as sturgeons go but still a put up a good fight.

    Off Topic: Redshoe is that a halibut I see in your profile?

    Shoe, I was looking through the profile pictures as I do now and then, and I see you've updated your profile pic with what looks to be a good sized fish: The pic is small but it looks like a halibut as big as you are! Nice catch! I myself get a bit of fishing done every now and then...

    Any other hobby farmers out there???

    RevDoc, with that kind of equipment and crew sounds like you've got quite an operation on your hands... would looooove to see some pictures of that. :D Share some more details?

    Any other hobby farmers out there???

    Indeed! An excellent rant I think. :D I've heard that quite a bit actually - regarding the Kubota being the smallest piece of equipment on site. They are well suited for tasks that require a bit more... nimble piece of equipment. Here in BC in the Okanagan where all the vineyards and orchards...

    Hobby farming? Where's RevDoc when you need him? I think I remember him mentioning something about that. Me? I barely know my carrots from my onions.

    Recommend a loader for my B6100

    Re: What videos do you want to see from us? Ok, that's a good looking loader for your B6100 AK. Checking the pricing on this loader that Vic suggests, pricing is a bit below Buhler's - expect to pay around $2800-3000 for Leon loader whereas Buhler is closer to $4200-4500.

    Should I go Grey?

    Hello Bjorn! Welcome to the fourms - all the way from Knoxville Iowa. I understand your hesitation when it comes to knowingly becoming a new owner of what Kubota refers to as its gray market models. Kubota really instills the fear and wrath of God on those owners that are considering purchasing...

    Steering

    Lucky, how did the old bushing look - pretty worn out? After a few years of turning the steering wheel they can get that way.

    Service for the L3130

    A tractor with an LCD display eh? Does it have heated mirrors, seats and steering wheel too? Automatic park sensors? Actually, it probably does. :D I'm just jealous.

    Recommend a loader for my B6100

    Re: What videos do you want to see from us? Ok I admit - looking at it now that picture of the B6000 with the #95 loader is more loader than tractor. Alright Vic, so what loader do you suggest for AK's B6100? Is there something else Buhler's got that'll work?

    Newbie needs help, all advice welcome

    Hey Chuck, welcome to the site and the forum, thank you for signing up! benelli_t's right - you have to assess your needs and what you plan on using your equipment for. Mowing? Clearing a driveway? Hauling a trailer full of firewood/feed/vegetables? Digging out stumps? Depending on your...

    Display Light ?

    Hey again, glad to hear that we fixed your service light issue. When Vic says "glycol" - yes, he's referring to antifreeze. Depending on the type of antifreeze you purchase, will be made out of either ethylene glycol (toxic) or propylene glycol (not toxic but more $). The majority of...
